Re: daytona beach cruise ins?

Years ago, some people used to meet in the parking lot across from the La Playa on beach side. Drop in an Advanced Auto and see if they have the latest issue of the "Cruise News." It's a free publication some of them have. Towards the back there is a listing of local shows with dates & times. I usually grab a copy for my dad whenever I am in buying oil, etc.

Re: daytona beach cruise ins?

i looked into it, and there's a huge cruise in at old town friday night, but because my car is an 88 i need to have a spoiler, be lowered, have custom paint or a body kit, etc to participate. i am off by 1 year.. if it were an 87 i would be cool just as she is. oh well. guess i will just have to go get drunk and party elsewhere.

I try to shoot from the hip. No bs'n. My credentials say 87. I haven't tried to use it for the 98 yet. The 98 is modified enough for sure, but I hate dealing with people asking me questions. "Is it stock?". yup, sure is!
